Hello Board Buddies-
Thought I'd give ya all a quick run down of the latest events. Ugly stuff as always.
A couple months ago, I went to pick SB up to take her to my house for dinner. Had only seen her twice in 3 months and was missing her. She'd been staying with her unsavory friends.
Barely made it in the door and friend calls and tells her she is not welcome to come back. She was 2 weeks behind on her rent and had no money coming in. I cringed.
Promises upon promises...If you just let me stay a few weeks mom, I'll get a job, blah, blah blah. Ok. First couple of weeks, she put in applications, no drama. 3rd week, drama starts. Same ole stuff. I'll spare you the details.
Remember when boyfriend almost beat her to death in Feb? Well, she still LOVES him, insert barf. She was told more than once, If he ever comes into my home, you are out.
Came home unexpectedly a couple of Saturdays ago. Walk in and the monster is asleep on my couch, head on my pillows. All I could say when I saw him was, HELL NO!!! He sat up, I told him to get the F out of my house and SB to go with him. They left, I packed up her stuff, put it on the pation, locked the place up tighter than Ft. Knox and left for a couple of days.
Came home, her stuff was gone. No phone calls for a few days, then the I'm homeless mom. Please let me come home. NOT HAPPENING SB.
All summer, my best friend and I have been talking about me moving in with her. I'd be 5 mins. from work, easy child and my family. Much less rent, and not so much isolation of living alone. And, SB could NOT come home. SOLD!
She took the news ok, but I could see a look of shock on her face when she realized what that meant. I explained that it was all about me, not her this time, and I was going to make the move. She said she loved me and I haven't talked to her since.
This is gonna be a great move for me. No more 35 mile drive home from work...only 4 miles now. With winter approaching, it will be wonderful. And, my best friend, since 2nd grade, is a great support and my accountability partner. It's a perfect match.
So, my life goes on and SB is still stuck in the same place. I did remind her that I will always be there for her when she decides to help herself....
Blessings to ALL!
